Cal Performances thanks the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, The Wallace Foundation, and the Zellerbach Family Foundation for their generous support. CAL PERFORMANCES 5 ABOUT THE PROGRAM also influenced the acrobatic performing arts. For instance, the Lion Dance is Buddhist in origin. The lion was seen as the reincarnation of a woman, and was often teased into revealing her true identity. This dance was a symbol of spiritual renewal and also revered for dispelling bad luck. Originally, court entertainments involving acrobatics were formal and monotonous— quite the opposite of the lively, folk arts of the people. Eventually, however, the excitement of the acrobat’s amazing feats caught and held the attention of the ruling class, and acrobatic performers were routinely invited to the court to entertain and impress visiting dignitaries.

Gosselin1 Abstract The purpose of this study was to measure the dynamic tension force between the apparatus and the hanging equipment of five aerial circus apparatus and to recommend minimal loading requirements in rigging and design. Forces generated by different acrobatic movements were measured and synchronized with video recordings. Sixteen students of the National Circus School of Montreal´ (Canada) participated in the study. Maximal forces were analysed and characterized with respect to the discipline, the type of movement and the schooling level of the student. The maximal force measured was 5.3 kN performed in the discipline of aerial straps, equivalent to 7.9 times the bodyweight of the performer. A minimal breaking strength of 22 kN for the hanging point and all the equipment holding the rig is recommended. A minimal breaking strength of 22 kN for straps, 17 kN for rope, and 12 kN for silk, aerial hoop and dance trapeze is recommended. Keywords Aerial circus discipline, maximal forces, safety, circus rigging, acrobat mass Prepared using sagej.cls [Version: 2015/06/09 v1.01] Cossin, Ross and Gosselin 3 Introduction Aerial acrobats use their own force to lift their body and execute various movements requiring extreme strength and precision similar to gymnastics. Aerial acrobatics encompass all disciplines requiring the rigging of an apparatus at a height.

  • Plate Spinning, a Stilt-Walking Circus Ringmaster, Punch and Judy Shows, and a Drumming Band Will Come Together to Hit All the Right Notes in Rhyl
    Plate spinning, a stilt-walking circus ringmaster, Punch and Judy shows, and a drumming band will come together to hit all the right notes in Rhyl. The high street will have a circus-themed makeover for the latest free offering from Rhyl Town Council. The one-day Circus Saturday event sets the scene for an exciting summer line-up which includes two music festivals and the ever-popular air show. Rhyl Mayor Cllr Ellie Chard said: “The town council already supports the larger events such as the air show and the soul music festival which attract visitors from far and wide. “On top of that, we put on smaller community activities, primarily for the people who live in Rhyl. These events provide a day of free activities and experiences, some of which are new to the town. Circus Saturday is no different,” she said. Cllr Chard said there was a line-up of activities planned which visitors could try for themselves. She added: “Circus Saturday has something for everyone. We have traditional Punch & Judy shows, music from the fantastic Bloco Sŵn drumming band, crazy mirrors, a magician, balloon modelling, hoola hooping, and face painting. We even have a giant parrot puppet and caricaturist who can sketch visitors. More/… -2- “But we want people to be able to have a go at activities themselves which is why we have a giant game of kerplunk and circus skills workshops. It’s all designed to bring a little fun to the town and make people smile.” Circus Saturday, which will be held on Saturday July 13 between 11am-4pm, will be followed by events at the town’s arena including the Summer Soul music extravaganza on August 18 which fea- tures Jimmy James & The Vagabonds, The Edwin Starr Band ‘The Team’ featuring Angelo Starr, Pre- cious Wilson, Midnight Soul Supremes and guest DJs.

  • THE BENEFITS of LEARNING to JUGGLE for CHILDREN Written by Dave Finnigan
    THE BENEFITS OF LEARNING TO JUGGLE FOR CHILDREN Written by Dave Finnigan Fitness, Motor Skills, Rhythm, Balance, Coordination Benefits . Students can start acquiring pre-juggling skills in pre-school and kindergarten by learning to toss and catch one big, colorful, slow-moving nylon scarf. Once tossing and catching becomes routine, you can use one nylon scarf anywhere that you would normally use a ball or beanbag for most games and many individual challenges. Just think of the scarf as a "ball with training wheels." Scarf juggling and scarf play progresses in a step-by-step manner from one, to two, and on to three. Scarf play and scarf juggling requires big, flowing movements. Children get a great cardio-vascular and pulmonary work-out when they juggle scarves, exercising the big muscles close to the head and close to the heart. They will find scarf juggling to be a great deal of work and lots of fun at the same time. Once they move on to beanbags or other faster moving equipment, they get exercise not only from tossing, but from bending over to pick up errant objects as well. Once a student can juggle continuously, they can "workout" with heavy or bulky objects such as heavyweight beanbags, basketballs, or other items which provide strenuous exercise while they improve focus and dexterity. Because all of this tossing and catching activity can be done to music, you can use different types of music to help children acquire a sense of rhythm and a natural "beat." By working together, students can participate in a group activity requiring concentration and attention to task and reinforcing rhythm.
